The document discusses ways to improve spraying efficiency and reduce drift. It recommends slowing down spraying speeds to reduce drift and improve on-target coverage. Other suggestions include lowering boom heights, using smaller nozzle sizes, and implementing continuous rinsing systems to more thoroughly clean sprayers. Faster filling, improved boom suspension, and timed operational steps are also presented as methods to potentially claw back time on spraying activities. The overall message is that slowing down can allow for better coverage while finding other efficiencies to make up for lost time.
This document discusses continuous rinsing of sprayers as an alternative to triple rinsing. Continuous rinsing uses a secondary pump to push clean rinse water through the lines while the main pump sprays out the diluted mixture. Research showed continuous rinsing reduced residue levels to 2% much faster than triple rinsing without the operator leaving the cab. The document provides details on setting up a sprayer with continuous rinsing and notes it is not a replacement for fully cleaning sprayers but can rinse them more quickly and easily.
The document describes the benefits of LaundryPure, a device that cleans laundry using activated oxygen instead of traditional detergents and hot water. It reduces the need for detergents, prevents odor growth, eliminates allergic reactions, and keeps colors bright without bleach or hot water. LaundryPure incorporates ActivePure Technology, which was originally developed for the International Space Station, to lift dirt and bacteria from fabrics using oxygen. It provides a healthier, more environmentally friendly way to do laundry that also saves money on utilities and laundry products over time.
A pipette (also called a point or a pipettor) is a laboratory instrument used to transfer a measured volume of liquid.
Pipettes are commonly used in chemistry and molecular biology research as well as clinical biochemistry tests.
Pipettes come in several designs for various purposes with different levels of accuracy and precision, from single piece flexible plastic transfer pipettes to more complex adjustable or electronic pipettes.
A pipette works by creating a vacuum above the liquid-holding chamber and selectively releasing this vacuum to draw and dispense liquid.
Green Shoots, LLC, will introduce a new ultra-low pressure electric sprayer in 2017. The dispenser can dispense both spray and foam. Ultra-low pressure means there's less misting of the spray which translates into less drift, less off-target harm, and fewer fine spray particles that can cause harm to the operator. Moreover, ultra-low pressure means the battery can be smaller and lighter but still operate just as long. If you have questions, contact us at john@greenshootsonline.com.

Development of an Acid Scrubber for Reducing Ammonia Emissions from Animal Re...LPE Learning Center
Proceedings available at: http://www.extension.org/67663
Recent research has shown that over half of nitrogen excreted by chickens is lost into the atmosphere via ammonia volatilization before the litter is removed from poultry houses. Large quantities of particulate matter and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are also emitted from animal rearing facilities. During the past decade we have developed and patented an acid scrubber for capturing ammonia, VOCs and dust from air exhausted from poultry and swine barns. The objectives of this project were; (1) to re-design the scrubber to improve the ammonia removal efficacy, (2) conduct full-scale testing of the scrubber under controlled conditions at various ventilation rates, (3) evaluate the cost, practicality and efficacy of various acids for scrubbing ammonia, and (4) install scrubbers on exhaust fans of poultry houses located in Virginia and Arkansas and measure the efficiency of ammonia removal from the exhaust air. The efficiency of ammonia removal by the scrubber varied from 55-95%, depending on the type of acid used, air flow rate, and the internal scrubber configuration. This technology could potentially result in the capture of a large fraction of the N lost from AFOs, while simultaneously reducing emissions of bacteria, dust, and odors, which would improve the social, economic, and environmental sustainability of poultry and swine production.

This document discusses crop-adapted spraying (CAS), a method for optimizing pesticide application in orchards. CAS aims to match sprayer settings to orchard characteristics to achieve consistent pesticide coverage. Traditional pesticide labels do not account for orchard variability. CAS involves calibrating sprayers using orchard measurements and pesticide information. Trials found CAS reduced spray volumes by 20-35% compared to standard practices, saving up to $4,140 annually for one orchard, while maintaining pest control. CAS has the potential to save the Ontario apple industry $3.2 million annually in reduced pesticide use while improving quality.
This document discusses how vegetative barriers can help mitigate pesticide drift from agricultural spraying. It begins by explaining how pesticide drift occurs and can damage nearby crops, wildlife habitats, and harm neighborly relations. It then describes how wind behaves and how vegetative and artificial barriers can intercept pesticide droplets as wind passes through or over the barriers. Narrow row barriers placed close to the spray zone can provide local protection, while wide barriers provide regional protection further downwind. The document concludes with recommendations for effective barrier design, such as using plants with rough foliage and small leaves, a 50% porosity, height twice the spray release height, and combining barrier types.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

45. • There are lots of places for
residue to hide…
46. Research has shown that sprayers can
retain 10-15% of the original
concentration in
empty/fill valves, boom ends & filters...

• Some question
of build up
(calypso) but
may have
valves in
future.
53. Rinsing: Dilutes residual spray mix,
but does not address dead-end
plumbing.
Should be performed every few loads,
when moving empty sprayer between
fields, and at minimum if the
operator has (unwisely) decided not
to fully clean the sprayer at the end
of the day.
55. The power of dilution
Dilution Factor = Rinse volume + Remaining spray mix
Remaining spray mix
56. The power of dilution
Dilution Factor = Rinse volume + Remaining spray mix
Remaining spray mix
• A single rinse of 150 gal. to 20 gal.
leftover mix: Dilution factor of 8.5.
57. The power of dilution
Dilution Factor = Rinse volume + Remaining spray mix
Remaining spray mix
• A single rinse of 150 gal. to 20 gal.
leftover mix: Dilution factor of 8.5.
• But, serial dilution means 50 gal. to
20 gal. leftover, three times: Dilution
factor of 3.5 x 3.5 x 3.5 = 43!
